Pathetic Contract 

"I'll pay all the bills, as long as you want to replace me as a bride next week. What do you think?"

Kirana was worried and confused. She seemed to be in a dilemma with her decision. She was afraid of the risk she would receive one day.

Kirana thought for a moment. She read the contract in her hand. She didn't want to miss a single sentence in the contract letter she read.

"You can think about it first," said Keysa.

"Been thinking about it, I'll take it" said Kirana. She tried to convince herself of the decision she had just made.

"Okay then. You can sign the contract," Keysa asked.

After that, both of them signed the letter on stamp. After signing the letter, Keysa kept the letter.

"Remember, I have one condition for you," said Keysa.

"What's more?"

"You aren't allowed to fall in love with him, remember that," said Keysa, warningKirana.

Kirana could only nod hearing it. She didn't care about love or anything like that. She only focused on his grandmother's safety.

A few moments later, Keysa went out. Before leaving, she turned to Kirana. Then said something

"You have to go to the Haditama family's house tonight. And from now on, you areKeysa, not Kirana. Got it?"

Kirana nodded. Right after that, Keysa left. She seemed very relieved found someone to replace her.

"I can travel the world now, without being a puppet of annoyingHaditama family," Keysa said before getting into her car.

While in the restaurant,Kirana looked confused and worried. But that was all she could do to save his grandmother. She no longer cared about the risks he will encounter someday.

"At least I've done what's best for Grandma. God, forgive me," she whispered.

Now she had to do all of Keysa's orders. One of them she had to resign from his job. Because soon, she will be busy being the mistress of the Haditama family.

The next day, Kirana took a taxi to the Haditama family's residence according to Keysa's request. Arrived there, she hurried up and stepped into the mansion like a palace. She was astonished to see the majesty of the Haditama family's house.

I don't know what will happen in the house. She was quite hesitant to enter the house. But she has been awaited by Haditama's extended family.

"Welcome, Keysa," Sopia greeted happily. The warm welcome from the old woman was enough to make Kirana feel relieved. The fear that had been haunting her for a long time disappeared when she saw the smile that appeared on his grandmother's friendly face.

Kirana just stared to woman who greeted her. She didn't really know her, but from first impression, she gave her a pleasant impression.

"Keysa, don't you like this house?" asked Sophia again.

"No, Grandma. I'm so happy to be with Grandma's family. I was just surprised," said Kirana.

"This is your home now. Soon, you will be the daughter-in-law in this family. Your family and ours deliberately set you up with Grandma's grandson. So that our family remains united," said Sopia.

Kirana smiled hearing the sweet words from Sopia. Not long after, another family member came to Kirana in the living room. Their gaze on Kirana is not pleasant, it madeKirana feel afraid of her presence to them.

"So this is our future daughter-in-law?" asked Helena, a young woman who is Kirana's future mother-in-law.

"I thought she was beautiful like an angel. It turned out to be an ordinary woman," mocked Bastian, the future father-in-law.

"Yes grandma. How can you match a very handsome grandson with an ordinary girl like that? Poor Rafael," complained Helena insulting Kirana.

Hearing the ridicule,Kirana could only be patient. She didn't expect to be treated this bad. As soon as seeing the unpleasant situation, Sophia immediately spoke up.

"What's wrong with you all? After all, she is the future daughter-in-law of this family. Please don't insult her. Don't you know, she's the grandson of the Dwipanggafamily. Do you want to get in trouble for insulting her like that?" Sophia asked.

Helena and Bastian could only be silent hearing the question. They surely don't have any power compared to Sopia. They would not dare to fight Sopia if they wanted the inheritance of the Haditama family.

Kirana then sat on the international-class soft sofa. Her focus was on the stuffs of this house, everything has good quality. This madeKirana feel inferior.

A few moments later, a handsome man just got off the sports car worth billions of rupiah. She walked in and approached over her family in the living room. Incidentally she got a call to get home earlier from his office.

"You?" Raphael stared. "So you are my future wife?" asked Raphael.

Kirana also couldn't understand why she had to meet that man again. Bad impression did by Rafael first time they met at that time, made Kirana hate Rafael until this moment.

"Grandma, so I was sent home quickly just to meet this bum?" cursed Raphael.

"Shut up, Rafa. How dare you insult the grandson of the Dwipanggafamily. Be polite with her. After all, she is your future wife. Understand!"

Raphael was silent. For a moment he contemplated. He did not think that the servant was the grandson of a rich family.

"How could it be?" Rafaelmumbled

He knew that the woman in front of him was a restaurant waiter. They even had a fight at the restaurant.

Rafael looked very upset to meet the most annoying woman in his life. But again he could not refuse the wishes of his grandmother who had set him up with this woman.

"Grandma doesn't want to know whether you like him or not. You have to accept and love her. If you dare to against, then don't expect you to get a penny of this family inheritance. Understand!"

"Y-yes, Grandma." Raphael didn't flinch.

Kirana didn't say anything. She knew her current position and realized that shealso was forced to do that for the sake of his grandmother's surgery.

"Keysa, don't think about it. Grandma hopes you are comfortable in this family. Cause you will be married soon."

"Yes, Grandma."

Kirana smiled. She was quite relieved that Sopia's grandmother still cared about her. Even the rest of family members hated her so much.

After the meeting, Kirana then left the house. Sopia asked Rafael to take the woman to Rafael's apartment. Because there is no way the woman will return to her home on a different island.

On way back, Rafael looked annoyed with the matchmaking made by his family. He felt compelled to do so.

"Why would you accept this ridiculous matchmaking?" asked Raphael.

"I do not know. I was forced to do this as well," replied Kirana.

"Oh, you were forced. But how could you accept it, are you dumb?"

Kirana turned her face to Raphael. She seemed annoyed and really hated Rafael's attitude that always lookedher down. Unfortunately, Rafael didn't care about her feelings. Arrived in apartment. Rafael brought Kirana to her room. Before she went home, he warnedKirana.

"Don't expect me to love you!"
